I remember folding in Windows 98SE with my single Pentium Pro processor. By the time I moved up to W2k and had two processors, the machine was too slow to bother with. Then I got an AMD Thoroughbred to over clock and fold with.

Yeah, before they hit the 'range' and were just just 1 point. I was so smug with my first 100 points....I remember when WU points were still single digit range....
Wow, lots of memories...
I remember running my first dual proc computer just so I could run two clients at once. That was a MSI K7D Master w/ dual XP1600's (with conductive paint bridging the conductive pins to enable dual use and unlocking the multipliers).
I also had up to 28 motherboards all screwed to a peg board in my basement, all barebones with just a motherboard, proc, vid card and a small 2- 8 gb hdd, and up to three all wired to one power supply just for F@H. My friends all thought I was nuts, but I really enjoyed it all, and my basement was always warm (and loud)...
This........If you were doing 100 points/day you were a big time folding GOD!!!!!
QMD's put out 600 pts and you HAD to have an Intel cpu otherwise forget it.
Hence my reluctant migration over to the "dark side".
